Property Description

This Lucas County farm is one of the best hunting properties you will find in all of Iowa. This 283+/- acres has it all. Mature timber, 63 acres of tillable row crop, and 50 acres of CRP create the perfect habitat for you to grow, manage, and hold monster whitetails that southern Iowa is known for. Extensive timber management practices have allowed for increased growth rate and potential value of the younger trees, improved cover and food sources for woodland wildlife, and increased numbers of desirable tree species on the property.

The farm has real nice stands of oak, hickory, and walnuts. Through the hard work and stewardship of the landowners, the farm has also earned the prestigious designation of a Certified Tree Farm. The 50 total acres enrolled in CRP are not your typical brome, but are all prairie restoration and habitat improvement plans. The landowners have seen the benefits including a pheasant and quail population that has exploded over the past couple of years, too many turkeys to count some days, and a healthy and strong deer herd. The sanctuary locations with minimal disturbance over the years have created a safe haven for the whitetails as well. The amount of deer sign is incredible on the farm. Beaten down trails, massive scrapes and too many rubs to count. The farm has a proven tract record of producing big mature whitetails as you can see in the trail camera and harvest photos. Strategically placed box blinds will give you a birds eye view of the beautiful, rolling terrain and allow you to hunt in comfort. This is truly one of the best hunting properties I have had the pleasure of being on.

If you are in the market for a premier southern Iowa hunting farm with a proven tract record of success, you owe it to yourself to take a look at this farm in person. Call Sean Stewart today to schedule your private tour!
